Trotta Loan

The Club can confirm that young striker Marcello Trotta has joined Brentford on loan.

The forward heads to Griffin Park until 13th January to team up with Uwe Rosler’s npower League One side.

The 20-year-old could feature when the Bees host Sheffield United on Saturday (3pm). Brentford currently lie in seventh place in League One and just outside the Play-Off places, with the Blades sitting in second.

The Italian, who arrived at Fulham in the summer of 2009, enjoyed a successful loan spell in League One last term, scoring eight goals in as many appearances for Wycombe Wanderers.

He then returned to SW6, making his Fulham debut in the Club’s FA Cup Fourth Round defeat at Everton.
